Erwin, Joan E.; Hunter, John J. – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1984
Tested patients (N=80) in an alcoholic rehabilitation program for field dependence with the Embedded Figures Test and for logical reasoning with two Piagetian tasks: the pendulum and the plant problem. Results suggested that cognitive factors play a more important role in alcoholics' response to treatment than has been recognized. (LLL)
